I spend half my time working from home on my desktop computer, and half my time away on the laptop. Instead of copying all my files every time I go away, I use an external HDD which I plug into whatever I am using at the time.
Previously, this worked flawlessly with a put-together laptop drive in a USB caddy. However, since buying a WD Elements external 1TB drive, I seem to have to take ownership every time I disconnect from the desktop and plug into the laptop. And vice versa. This is extremely time consuming, so I can't just connect my external drive to my laptop to open something quickly in a meeting.
Is there any kind of solution? for example let any user full access to all files and folders on any computer? Also, maybe or maybe not relevent, when I plug it in, it keeps asking whether I want to run password.exe.
